To check proxies using scrapebox UI you can change the timeout setting to a min of 10 secs.
You can lower this timeout to 4~5 secs to check the whole list faster and you'll grab the most responsive ones.
To "hack" this setting, go to your scrapebox folder/Configuration, open scrapebox.ini and search for ProxyHarvester=XXXX, now change XXXX to milliseconds timeout.

15 is for 15 proxies to be checked at once...
45000 is the miliseconds to wait for each proxy. Change it to about 5000 (for 5 sec)

Thanks, Most of the time I am getting Error 404 connection time out and Error 403 forbidden, how can I get rid of this problem?
that error message means the IP's have already been used and abused so you need to look for a different source
this is as nice trick , but this wil result in lesser proxies , sometimes there may be slow proxies which arent blacklisted :)
for better results use MAX time out... (thats what i do )
